All the history and tough-girl durability of the original, iconic 8-eye Boot—offered in a variety of colors. This Pascal was constructed on our iconic Dr. Martens AirWair bouncing sole, that’s oil-and-fat resistant with good abrasion and slip resistance—and has been since 1960. The women’s 8-eye boot is Goodyear welted, meaning the upper and sole are sewn together in our heat-sealed z-welt stitch for enhanced comfort. The Pascal is made with Virginia, a soft, fine grained Nappa leather.

Construction

This is a Goodyear-welted product. The upper and sole are heat-sealed and sewn together, not merely glued like many footwear constructions.

These are THE most comfortable pair of shoes I have worn yet! I was in a bad car accident over a year and a half ago. One of my injuries was my right foot. It was trapped under my steering wheel. I had broken bones in my foot. Ever since I got these boots, my foot has felt better than it has in a LONG time! I would most definitely recommend these to anyone!!

I love these boots! They were comfortable right out of the box. The soft leather did not require any 'breaking in'. Wear them to work every day and my feet don't get tired. I get tons of compliments... apparently they are quite stylish! These were recommended by my orthopedic doctor, as I have a fractured foot and really don't want to get a cast. So he said to wear these shoes for a month and see if it heals. So far, so good!

Bad Points−

Nope. Some of the charts gave conflicting information regarding Euro and US sizing, so I was unsure which size would fit best. I ordered two sizes, and was glad I did. For my foot the size is the same as my Dansko clogs. With free shipping and returns it was worthwhile.

Very comfortable with my sz 8 no issues with breaking in at all. Color"Dress Blue" right on point as expected.

Bad Points−

My only con is the leather seems thinner than expected, even though it is meant to be softer. The thinner leather is concerning if worn in to rugged of an environment, or worn while riding a motorcycle as they may scuff easily.

They are made with the best leather! The leather is so soft! It use to take me years to brake in my doc's but with the Virgina leather, it was like they were already molded to my feet from the first time I put my feet in them! I want a pair in every color! I will be purchasing a pair of ivory ones for my wedding because they ROCK!

It fits well and is a nice shade of blue, the soles are comfortable and after wearing the shoes out a little its very nice to walk in

Bad Points−

The blue was not what the picture online showed, the blue of these shoes are a lot lighter than shown in the picture. The shoes scratched really easily compared to my other shoes and I thought these would be similar to the cherry red color of the pascals in the sense that the leather would be the same density but the leather was actually softer than I thought.

I love my Docs. This is my second pair...my first pair lasted 25 years of field work and some of that was fighting fire. My grand daughter got her first pair this last Christmas. Thank you for such a wonderful comfortable boot!

This is my 5th doc martens boot, and my 3rd of the nappa leather texture. Firstly I LOVE the color, I purchased beige laces from another vendor and they look amazing with a military jacket or a bomber.

They're much easier to break in than the standard leather variety of Docs, but for the first few wears, they'll be a bit tight at the top of your foot (where the seam is most pronounced and the laces begin). It's worth it though because these are the most comfortable boots EVER once broken in!

The nappa leather is soft enough to break in on its own instead of my freezer bag trick I use with my standard leather ones, which are usually just too stiff to wear right out of the box. Just ensure you wear a nice and thick, long sock with these! My favorite is Nike elite socks.

Bad Points−

Not really a con, but if you're between sizes, go for the whole size down. i.e., I am usually a 9.5 everywhere, in these boots, I wear a 9.

This is my favorite pair of boots ever, I have them in gray as well. Out of all my docs this style is my favorite. The material is sturdy and pliable so you can tighten or loosen them as much as needed. I wear a 9.5 but had to order up to a 10 and with the material being soft, I am able to lace them tight enough that they fit propperly. I have many back and foot issues and these boots(and other similar styles ) are the best for my pain and I highly recommend them to anyone. They are wonderful.

I saw these purple Docs and had to have them. I haven't worn a pair in years so was a little leary about buying them. I wasn't sure about the overall quality or me wearing them as a 40 year old. Well, they are amazing quality and I rock them at my age! My daughter (23) just bought a pair because she loved mine so much!

I love the color. It's not too bright or too dark. The leather is very soft and comfortable.

Bad Points−

The only thing that bums me out is that I had to exchange my women's size 10 for an 11 due to the width of my feet. They fit but we're unbearably tight over the top of my foot. I am actually a 9-9 1/2 and normally have to wear a 10 in women's. The docs I wore 20+ years ago were 10's. I feel like the 11's look too big and I hate to not be 100% satisfied with boots I was looking so forward to and paid so much for. It was my decision though and my annoying foot situation. I just think women's docs don't need a more slender foot bed. Other than that these are worth the money.

Dr martens last forever! I have been wearing them for the past 20 years. This pair was a special treat to me, as I didn't have to break them in. The leather is so soft and pliable, it was like I was putting on one of my older pairs.The matte graphite color is amazing. It's is the closest that I have ever come to replacing my very first pair. My first ones were gunmetal metallic. I got those 1995.

Bad Points−

I think they would have looked better with black laces, but the grey ones are growing on me.

This is the Pascal Virginia in "Lead" which is not my first pair of Virginias. I own 9 of the 11 colors that Dr. Marten has offered of these because this style is by far the most comfortable, and versatile Doc style that I own! There is virtually no "Break-In" period. You can wear them up (Boot Style) or folded down which is the way I usually wear them. There are two particular colors though that when I have them on people actually stop me, and ask where I purchased them. They are the "Buffalo Blood" and "Wild Yellow" colors. Too bad it doesn't seem possible to buy them anymore.
